  • To cardinal fans, this is why a running game is so important.

    when u get that close to the goaline. u have to atleast try to run it in. instead warner makes a bad read and harrison picks him off for a TD the other way. a 10 point swing if not a 14 point. seems like the running game has gotten away from a lot of teams.

    Too true. When the Cardinals went ahead you could hear yelling around my neighborhood . Then silence. Live by the sword die by the sword.

      There was 18 seconds left with no timeouts.... not a good idea to chance a run there!

        Look at the stats. No one hardly ever runs well against the Steelers.

          true. but edge was getting almost 4yds per run. you'd think he could get one or two yards regardless of who's defense is out there.

            the steelers are the best D in the league... the cards made the correct call in a pass play... it was just terrible execution on Warner to throw the ball into coverage... he obviously didnt read the coverage correctly and tried to force the ball into a window that wasnt there...

            even if they were getting 10 yards per run, i would of put my money on the Steelers red zone D...

                you just about can't run it that situation. no timeouts left, you get stuffed, and you don't get any points. Throwing the ball was the way to go. You can argue the play call was questionable. It was a bad throw, and an amazing run back that usually gets tackled before the score. Both were really unlucky for the cardinals and, unfortunately, cost them the game.

                  it was only second down wasn't it? if so,quick hand-off. don't make it then spike the ball and go for a field goal with about 3-5 seconds on the clock. i know, easier said than done. THAT PLAY JUST PISSED ME OFF.

                    your right on one thing

                    18 seconds is PLENTY of time on the clock to call a run play even with zero time outs remaining... im not gonna disagree there... they could of ran a play and then spiked the ball to set up for a FG..

                    the pass play wasnt the problem at all thou...

                    it was the poor execution on Warner that caused the interception... Harrison acted like he was gonna pass rush but dropped back into coverage and Warner didnt think he was going to be where he was... that is all on Warner...

                    like Chris Wade said you live by the sword you die by the sword... the cards are a passing team and thought they could pass better in teh red zone then run...

                    after all it wasnt the almighty running ability of the cards that put them in a position to win the super bowl late in the game... they played their best against the steelers while THROWING in the 4th quarter...

                    the cards should of lined up 4 wide the entire game and they would of eaten up the Steelers secondary... the steelers were more worried about teh cards throwing game than they were about them having a running game...

                      I dont think you are going to find too many Arizona fans on a Bronco message board. You might want to try the Cardinals message board to contact those fans in the future :doh:

                          no doubt. i just hate seeing one dimensional teams. that seems to be the trend.

                              Why waste a down? I would rather have two tries to pass the ball then one try running the ball.

                              Problem was with the specefic call. Throw the fade to Fitzgerald, he's unstoppable. It's either TD or incomplete.
